Why can I find gene profile charts or DataSet clusters for my experiment of interest?
As explained in the ‘What is the difference between a Series and a DataSet?’ FAQ above, suitable submitter-supplied GEO records are reassembled by GEO staff into comparable DataSets. At periodic intervals, these DataSets are then indexed and loaded into Entrez GEO Profiles and Entrez GEO DataSets, which allows users to query gene names, visualize charts and clusters, and more. If your GEO records of interest have not yet been assembled into a DataSet, these features will not be available. Not all submitted data are suitable for DataSet assembly and we are experiencing a backlog in DataSet creation, so not all Series have corresponding DataSet(s). However, the entire experiment is still available for download from our FTP site and from links at the bottom of Series records.
